Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
got back from camping on the weekend and had an amazing time. I’ve gotta say guys, tidal river is just the best. Its camping lite. You have hot showers, you can go grab a coffee and a bacon and egg roll in the morning, there is Drinkable water. If you have never been camping you should consider giving it a go. Heck, reach out to me and I can recommend all the gear you need for under 100 bucks. the amount of folks rocking a Kmart tent was pretty nuts. And you’ll come back feeling so recharged you’ll wonder why you didnt do it sooner.
Sounds like you had a great place, we went near Licola and had a river nearby and nothing else, but we have a lot of gear and a camper trailer so we were pretty set. I love being in the outdoors and away from everything, eating and sitting around or paddling in the river, really just doing fuck all.
I’ve never been, was it nice? I’ve just started looking into camper trailers. Man it is a slippery slope to go down. Do you mind if I ask what you got?
Someone’s brought a cat in a stroller on the tram and everyone on the nearby seats is awwwing at it. A nice scene after seeing the ol’ AOs interrogate and fine a clueless looking Asian guy while letting a ratty looking white couple go with just a talking-to
We won. Australia won The Cricket World Cup 2023. 🏆🎉💛💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛🇦🇺
I bowed out at about 12:30 where we lost 3 or 4 wickets by the 7th over and thought we were gone.
Happy to see we got the chocolates at the end!
I too stayed and watched the whole thing. First time watching cricket. Getting up now.
I didn’t sleep well so I might as well have just stayed up and watched the entire thing.
Still glad I got to see the double century from Maxwell where he cramped up majorly. That was a match for the ages.
I’m surprised at the lack of interest in the Australia thread. This was such a massive deal, the odds of an Australia win were so low. And then they went and did it anyway!
Work is going to be so much fun!
I think it’s the loss of Cricket “season”. There’s so much cricket year-round that people no longer get that build up/6 month break cycle any more. The team is playing so well at the moment, and there just isn’t the interest there used to be.
Willowton Free Range Chicken (available from Aldi) consistently outperforms all other chicken brands I’ve tried which are frequently tough and chewy.
Bugger.
Seems like someone has found my secret spare house key location and it’s gone :(
Been having a few tradies recently and the only way you could see the key would be if you were up high… and tradies were up on scaffolding above where it was.
I’m not accusing anyone but now means my policy is potentially void and I need to change locks.
This is on top of waking up the other week to find all the flyscreens taken off out the back in an attempted break in.
Fuck those people.
I’m embarrassed to say this message exchange was what prompted me to tack a Bunnings trip onto my outing to get a really basic key safe for my spare keys (currently naked under an overturned pot in the car port, which has definitely had things filched from it before). Dont know why I didn’t consider it earlier…
